Currently, the best building engineers and architects in the world are using lightweight concrete in different parts of the building by directly lightening the weight of the building (due to the light weight of this type of concrete) and also saving energy consumption indirectly (the insulation of this type (Concrete against heat and cold reduces the amount of fuel) economically, they have taken long and important steps. The most use of concrete foam is in the construction of light blocks for roofs and walls, as well as building floors and slopes. In addition, this lightweight concrete can be used to fill sewage wells and tunnel holes.
According to the specific characteristics of foam concrete, its various uses are separated according to its specific weight and compressive strength:
According to the specific characteristics of foam concrete, its various uses are separated according to its specific weight and compressive strength:
Flooring of the floors
Flooring of floors is one of the most important and wide applications of foam concrete. By substituting concrete foam instead of foaming, about 300 kg per cubic meter is lightened and thermal and sound insulation is tripled on the floors. Because foam concrete has light weight and high execution speed, you can cover the floor of all floors of the building with it after finishing the installation work.
Roof sloping
Due to its high resistance, thermal and moisture impermeability, as well as the lightness of foam concrete, the best way to slope the roof is to use this product. After applying foam concrete on the roof, it can be insulated or insulated directly without any additional operations.
In addition, applying foam concrete on gable roofs can reduce heat and sound transmission by 50% through It causes the roof to be strengthened and prevents their additional vibrations. Concrete that, in addition to reducing the dead load of the building, reduces the force on the structure due to the acceleration of the earthquake, and in case of destruction, the weight of its debris is also reduced.
